Abandonment of the Molten Vault (Adjust Treasures of Utzaal Quest Reward)

How many people have done the Molten Vault more than once or at all ?

And then wondered why tf this Quest after this Location and Boss only rewards an uncut skill gem?

I think it's one of the best designed encounters in the game and should reward skill points or similar but with the tiring map layout of act 3 /drowned city, there is a very high chance of people never going in there in the first place.

What do you think ? The reward should make it a mandatory visit imo.

I disagree.

The boss fight at the Molten Vault is a DPS check, and putting a skill point behind that would upset a lot of people.

It's a fun and unique fight compared to every other boss in PoE2 and PoE1, don't get me wrong, but it absolutely penalizes players who got unlucky with finding good gear to improve their DPS, or run builds that are generally slower than others.

A lot of mandatory bosses are DPS checks aswell to be fair, not as straight forward as being chased by molten gold.

It doesn't need to be skill points but the current reward is entirely neglectable at every stage of the game and everyone and their mother is already straight up beelining to apex because of the drowned city/utzaal layout.

Not really.

Unlike the Molten Vault, other boss fights don't end arbitrarily after a certain length of time has passed. You can take over an hour to kill any other boss if you really wanted to, but it's only this one that will straight up kill you if you don't take him out fast enough.
